A remarkable outpouring of faith was witnessed at Bethlehem Church, a megachurch in Georgia, where 400 people were baptised over a single weekend. The baptisms followed a sermon series focused on the Holy Spirit, during which Pastor Jason Britt sensed a clear prompting to invite people to respond publicly to the call of Christ. Church leaders described the moment as the fruit of years of faithful sowing through discipleship, relationships, and consistent witness. Many who were baptised had previously been connected through small groups, personal conversations, and pastoral care. Pastor Britt preached from Acts 2, emphasising repentance and baptism as a response to the Holy Spirit’s work. He said that a Spirit-filled church is marked by people who are sensitive and obedient to God’s leading. The church is now committed to nurturing new believers through ongoing support, including small groups, personal follow-up, and encouragement, helping them grow strong in their walk with Christ.

CBN News has reported that over 300,000 people have reportedly been baptised in Papua New Guinea, marking a significant spiritual event. The mass baptisms occurred during the PNG for Christ campaign, a collaborative effort by several organisations. Pastor Ted Wilson, president of the Seventh-day Adventist world church, and his wife, Nancy, led daily events during the two-week campaign. He has recently confirmed that the number of baptisms has surpassed 300,000. Wilson attributed this to the 'Holy Spirit power being poured out on Papua New Guinea’. The campaign saw dramatic changes, including drug lords destroying their marijuana crops and being baptised, prisoners converting, entire villages embracing Adventism, and miraculous healings. Pastor Miller Kuso, PNG United Mission’s personal ministry director, coordinated the events, visiting numerous sites across the country. Prayers are requested for the newly baptised individuals and the leaders who are guiding them in their new faith.
